Double recommendation today! Episode 78 of has an interview about the very different amounts of dialogue that video game characters of different genders get. If you took The Language of Gaming module or you’re interested in language and gender, or stylistics, this one’s for you! Then there’s an interview about forensic linguistics which touches on lots of the issues we cover in Language and the Law including cultural differences among aboriginal and white Australians, the lack of understanding about the need for an interpreter, and lots more. Enjoy!

Just some of the reasons to come and study , the best subject ever, at

1: amazing range of modules to choose from! Language teaching, stylistics, sociolinguistics, pragmatics, and loads more!

2: I’ve developed a special workshop series just for ELL students to hone your skills

3: you can live on campus! It’s green, it’s close to everything and there are rabbits! Be independent without having to navigate a big city by yourself!

5: your groups will be small so you’ll make friends and we’ll know you personally so you get great value for money
